       When I run style.py：

python style.py --style path/to/style/img.jpg --checkpoint-dir checkpoint/path --test path/to/test/img.jpg --test-dir path/to/test/dir --content-weight 1.5e1 --checkpoint-iterations 1000 --batch-size 20
problem：
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "style.py", line 167, in
main()
File "style.py", line 115, in main
check_opts(options)
File "style.py", line 91, in check_opts
exists(opts.checkpoint_dir, "checkpoint dir not found!")
File "src/utils.py", line 26, in exists
assert os.path.exists(p), msg
AssertionError: checkpoint dir not found!

Maybe I'm reviving a dead thread, but to anyone asking the same question, here's what I did to resolve this:

• Create a folder (call it w/e you want, I called it checkpoints) in the root directory of your project
• On the command specify the newly created folder as the checkpoints folder as such:
  --checkpoint-dir checkpoints

The checkpoint/path is a place to add your model files ! First ,you should train NN net to get that model ,then you can use it after !
